    [Core Elements: Anti-Cultivation Routine + Warring States Period Time Travel + Dark Cultivation Revealed] Grey Cat's *The Legend of Yunmeng Immortals* takes the "time-travel cultivation" genre to a subversive, dark twist. The protagonist, Xu Shenwu, travels to Yunmeng Mountain during the Warring States period, initially believing he can achieve immortality by joining the Ghost Valley sect. However, he witnesses firsthand the cruel truth of cultivators devouring living people to build their foundations—the spiritual energy accumulated by mortals over a thousand years is merely "medicinal nourishment" for immortals in the upper realm! From being chased by a four-armed white ape to practice his staff techniques, to wielding a wordless heavenly book to expose the bloody rules of the cultivation world (the Qi Condensation stage requires ten-year-old ginseng, the Foundation Establishment stage requires consuming ten Qi Condensation stage cultivators...), Every step subverts the established norms and overturns the heavenly order. Readers who enjoy watching protagonists rise against all odds in the dark cultivation world and turn "immortal recipes" into weapons will find this anti-cultivation novel set in the Warring States period absolutely addictive, offering a thrilling experience of "overturning the heavenly order."
